Following the battle against Central, Souma established a new Shokugeki focused Central. This has since seemingly eased the tension between the Central chefs and the rebels since then, as now even the former Central members are working as part of Erina’s new Elite Ten. With her acting as the new school head, this is truly a new era for Totsuki Academy.
The current arc of the series is beginning to unfold as a shadow organization of underworld chefs have been using the Totsuki’s Shokugeki style of battle cooking to run wild through the culinary world. It’s going to be up to Souma and the new Elite Ten to get to the bottom of things, and this arc will surely challenge each of them as they enter their crucial second year of school while balancing this new status quo.
